Book Reviews of Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Guilty Pleasures, Vol. 1 (Graphic Novel)
Book Review: So when's the movie comming out?
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm not really into anything Marvel, I'm more of a DC girl myself but when I heard about my favorite novel series; Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter was geing released in comic form I immediatly bought it as soon as I physically could.
As a big comic book fan and also a heavy reader of many genres of novels, I'm always a bit dubious when it comes to cross overs. Namely my beloved comic books being turned into movies, directed by someone who did a few good movies, then made the movie-comic book crossover one absolutely dire.
But what about when a novel series becomes a comic book?
For anyone who has read most of the Anita Blake series, you'll probably have your own idea in your head of what you think the characters look like from the descriptions written by L.K.H. My idea's of what the characters looked like differs from the characters drawn in this graphic novel obviously, but not so much that it has you critisizing every single image saying; "That's not right, why didn't they do this instead?"
That asides. It is nice to see artwork that has been OK'd by L.K.H. herself and slightly quells that "I don't really like what I'm seeing" thought you may have as it partially did with me. I still have conflicting thoughts on what Anita herself looks like in my head compared to what I see in this graphic novel. I actually pictured her less "Birthing Hips," less muscular thighs and so on, but also pictured her with a bit more colour to her skin. Not white near enough.
Needless to say. This graphic novel follows a good few chapters of "Guilty Pleasures" well and makes a nice and interesting change to actually see some fantastic artists produce really stunning work. The line work is neat where it needs to be, the colouring is quite nice even though I still have my own personal reservations about it. Other than that, an enjoyable read.
